And tight end Vernon Davis: “They’re just everywhere on the field. They’re a tremendous gift to the team.”

Now, here’s what losing teams sounds like.

They are not above passively-aggressively trampling their teammates.

Here’s Redskins receiver Jabar Gaffney on his quarterback, John Beck, via the Washington Post: “For whatever reason, John goes through his reads, a lot of times he didn’t come to me. That’s neither here nor there. That’s for coach to talk to John about.”

And tight end Fred Davis, who at least offered his quarterback some benefit of the doubt, “I was getting open. A few times I was open, I don’t know if Beck had enough time to hit me.”

Losing teams also crack and fall apart.

The defense blames the offense.

The offense blames the defense.

The Redskins have a capable defense and a cruddy offense, which inspired this quote, via the Post, from cornerback DeAngelo Hall’s appearance on 106.7 The Fan on Sunday night.

“All we can do defensively is try to limit as many points, try to limit as many plays, try to make as many plays defensively as we can, because we know (the offense) needs all the help they can get. It’s almost like your little brother. Obviously you can’t go beat up an 8-year-old. If you’re 15 years old, all you can do is keep training your little brother – ‘Hey, this is what we need to do. Dude will come at you, throw your hands up. Duck and weave. Bob and weave. Throw this punch. Keep attacking ‘em.’ But it ain’t much more we can do. We can’t, defensively, go out there and play offense.”

Based on Hall’s assessment, the Redskins sound like two teams.

The 49ers, to borrow Jim Harbaugh’s phrase, sound as if they are all about the team, the team, the team.
